Learning outcomes

In accordance with the periodization adopted in our French literature courses (first year: from 1850 to today; second year: Eighteenth century and first half of the Nineteenth century; third year: Sixteenth and Seventeenth centuries), this course introduces to French literature from 1850 to today, with in-depth analysis of some aspects, authors and works, in order to develop critical competences concerning various literary genres. As for the Bachelor’s Degree in Humanities, the historical insights and critical perspectives offered by this course are useful tools for the comparative study of French literature in the European context. At the end of the course, students shall therefore acquire overall knowledge of the history of French literature from 1850 to today (main literary movements, authors and works), along with critical competences and the ability of applying them to the comparative analysis of texts belonging to different literary genres. This course is divided in two parts because students attending the Bachelor’s Degree in Humanities achieve 6 credits (part 1 of the course), whereas students attending the Bachelor’s degrees in Foreign Languages and Literatures and in Languages and Literatures for Publishing and Digital Media achieve 9 credits (part 1 and 2 of the course, the second part being conceived as the completion of the first).
